As acting headmaster, I’m practically a shoo-in for the permanent spot. Since all I have in this world is the gym and my career, I want this promotion more than anything. The only thing that could possibly screw things up for me would be some sort of drama or an accusation of impropriety on my part, but something like that isn’t likely. That is…until Aria Kane walks into my office and turns my world upside down. Aria is an American exchange student whose supermodel mother relocated her here to Italy. This is her second year with us, but it’s the first time I’m meeting her face-to-face. Seems Ms. Kane has decided to habitually use her cell phone in class, and I need to discipline her. Mio dio. This girl is like a living work of art, and I’m alarmed by the realization that I want her…badly. I try to compose myself, but she isn’t making it easy. Can it be? Is this sexy, little thing trying to seduce me? When she proposes that I punish her bad behavior in class, my wafer-thin control almost snaps. Almost. This little girl is way younger than me. I shouldn’t even consider being involved with her. But all excuses fly out the window the moment her skin touches mine. With heat licking through my veins, there’s only one thought in my mind—I will have her. She will be mine. Now and forever. F*ck the consequences.
